SNCF

The National Company of the French Railways (SNCF) operates a handful of lines throughout continental France.

What types of carriages are available on SNCF night trains?

In their night trains, they typically offer two types of carriages: seats and couchettes, with the latter available in first and second class.

How are the couchette carriages arranged?

In the couchette carriages, you travel in 4-person compartments (first class) or 6-person compartments (second class). The berths are simply designed in both classes and are about 1.9 meters long.

Are there private compartments?

Yes, they are available. You can book an entire couchette compartment for private use. This can also be done for a group.

What's the difference between first and second class in couchette carriages?

In first class, only four people share a compartment, the berths are wider, and travelers have access to station showers in Paris and Toulouse. Second class accommodates six people per compartment and allows bicycles to be brought for an additional fee of 10 euros – a plus for cyclists.

What about food and amenities?

You should bring your own food as there is no restaurant on board. Alternatively, you can pre-order meals and drinks or eat before departure. First class travelers receive a small breakfast. Each passenger receives a night kit with refreshing towelette, dental cleaning tablet, sleep mask, earplugs, and water.
